Lanaman Boutique Hotel (Aofan Center Store, 54 Square, Qingdao)

It was easy to book! Paid by apple pay. Got a room with 2 beds slightly larger than twin mattress for 2 nights for $41CAD per night. Neighborhood has lots of lunch and dinner places. Only a few blocks from over 100 restaurants. Neighborhood felt safe and somewhat quiet after 9pm. Fair amount of daytime noise which is expected. Aircon was strong which was important to me. There was a shared fridge for the whole hotel which has about 40rooms i think. I was able to chill my drinks and fruits which was nice. I needed to repair a bag and the front desk loaned me a needle and gifted me thread which was nice. The room bathrooms have a sit down toilet which is nice, but their showers are the type integrated into the entire bathroom without a divider or curtain so everything will get wet. Thankful for the bathroom ventilation which dries the bathroom in about 3-4 hrs in warm weather. There’s an additional shared shower & squat toilet near the tiny lobby that needs renovation, but at least it’s there in case of need. I was on the first floor and when I opened my window I could hear people spitting hawk tuah in the alley at least 20 times during my stay. Rooms are small if you have 2 large adults with luggage. But using the small tables & shelving well & closing the windows and turning on the AC helped. I was happy with the price and the peaceful area. In a pinch I would stay again…just above hostel level stay.

Definitely NOT what I would describe as a boutique hotel!🤔.However, very clean and nice staff. Down a little alley, and as for view of garden or city view = the back street of an alley way!😜😂

這次住酒店的體驗感很好，一進大廳就感覺很舒服，前台小姐姐很漂亮服務態度還好，房間乾淨舒適，還有洗衣房這對出差的來説很方便了，周邊很繁華，出門交通方便，去海邊溜達了一下也很近，總體來説很不錯酒店，值得給個五星好評，下次來還住這。
